- THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) ONLY. This RFI is issued solely for information and market research planning purposes. This RFI shall not be construed as an obligation on the part of the Government. This is NOT a Request for Quotations or Proposals. No solicitation document exists, and the Government may or may not issue a formal solicitation as a result of the responses received to this RFI. The Government will not pay for any response or demonstration expenses. All costs incurred responding to this RFI will be solely at the interested party's expense.

Any information received will become the property of the Government and will not be returned to the submitter. Interested parties are responsible for adequately marking proprietary or sensitive information. The Government�s explicit intent, in this request for information, is to not receive from respondents any proprietary data, trade secrets, business sensitive information, or information considered CONFIDENTIAL under 18 U.S.C. �1905. The Government�s constraint does not in any way relieve contractors from their responsibility to properly mark proprietary data when it is provided, nor does it alleviate any requirement for the Government to protect marked data.

This resource will support DHS workforce health readiness, travel medicine, epidemiological monitoring activities across DHS Components. The database and alert service shall include aerial route risk mapping capability, providing data for aviation-related health risk assessments and global route-specific medical considerations for personnel engaged in mission-related travel and protective operations. In alignment with OHS statutory authorities, this requirement supports enterprise-level access to preventative and travel health information, ensuring the DHS workforce is equipped with timely evidence-based data to support global readiness missions. This requirement replaces the prior limited-use subscription and transitions DHS to an enterprise-wide capability. The upgraded system shall deliver continuously updated health intelligence for infectious diseases, outbreaks, vaccination requirements, and emergency medical resources worldwide. OHS requires continuous subscription access to an online database that provides the most accurate and up-to-date worldwide incidence and prevalence information for a wide variety of infectious and other diseases; detailed GIS mapping capabilities; detailed reviews and recommendations for preventive measures; an online searchable library; linkages to practitioners globally with real-time information about new outbreaks or other crises; and linkages to reliable hospitals and medical providers to treat the DHS workforce when they are sick or injured. This subscription will significantly improve OHS�s ability to provide the safest possible health environment for its workforce and stakeholders. OHS is the principal medical, workforce health and safety, and public health authority for DHS. Since the inception of DHS, health security has played a pivotal role in the execution of the Department�s mission. The Office of Health Security positions the Department for a proactive and agile response to the evolving health security landscape. OHS was created via bipartisan and bicameral legislation which permitted the Department to effectuate a mission-targeted reorganization solely focused on departmental workforce health, safety, and medical functions. The roles, responsibilities and authorities of the Department�s Chief Medical Officer and OHS are found in statute including 6 U.S.C. � 350, 6 U.S.C. � 597, 6 U.S.C. � 597a, and 6 U.S.C. � 321q. These authorities are further reinforced via DHS Delegation 26000, Designation 00-26000 (Designated Agency Safety and Health Official), Designation 00-26002 (Anomalous Health Incident Agency Coordination Lead), and numerous Directives and Instructions. Additionally, OHS is responsible for the oversight and implementation at DHS of numerous government-wide authorities such as those related to Employee Assistance Programs and Health Service Programs (5 U.S.C. � 7901) and Worker�s Compensation Programs (5 U.S.C. � 8101, et seq). OHS also provides significant health leadership and support to ensure that the Department effectively carries out responsibilities related to immigration health under 42 U.S.C. � 249 and the due process clause of the 5th Amendment. With a mission to protect those who protect the nation, through the delivery of high-quality health, safety, and wellness programs and policies across DHS that are vital to a mission ready and resilient DHS workforce, OHS� Total Workforce Protection Directorate (TWPD) enriches a mission-ready DHS workforce, including working animals, to promote and sustain workforce health, prevent injury and illness, restore health, and sustain organizational wellness and psychological resilience. TWPD is responsible for programs, projects and activities in alignment with 6 U.S.C. � 350 and 6 U.S.C. � 597. Additionally, TWPD establishes departmental policies for health services programs (5 U.S.C. � 7901 and 5 U.S.C. � 7904), occupational safety and health (29 C.F.R. Part 1960) and workers� compensation programs (5 U.S.C. � 8101 et seq.). Embedded within TWPD, the Health and Medical Readiness Division (HMRD) works to integrate efforts towards workforce health protection through policy, guidance, and activities that maintain mission continuity while minimizing health threats and work-related injuries or disabilities. HMRD seeks to build and enhance a department-wide occupational medicine infrastructure that supports workforce health activities via overarching policy. The policy will provide a way to link information about all aspects of employee medical readiness for the purposes of improvement, surveillance, and other questions related to workforce health and readiness. OHS is seeking information from contractors who have provided global medical and travel health intelligence subscription services in the last three years for up to 1,000 members.
